  • Page 5: Safety Instructions And Measures

    SAMSON does not assume any liability for damage resulting from the failure to use the de- vice for its intended purpose or for damage caused by external forces or any other external factors.
  • Page 6 Î Observe safety measures for handling the device as well as fire prevention and explosion protection measures. Safety features The Types 46-7, 47-5 and 47-1 Regulators do not have any special safety features. When relieved of pressure and with open restriction, the regulators are opened by the force of the set point springs. Responsibilities of the operator Operators are responsible for proper use and compliance with the safety regulations. Opera- tors are obliged to provide these mounting and operating instructions as well as the refer- enced documents to the operating personnel and to instruct them in proper operation.
  • Page 7 Start-up and shutdown procedures fall within the scope of the operator's duties and, as such, are not part of these mounting and operating instructions. SAMSON is unable to make any statements about these procedures since the operative details (e.g. differential pressures and temperatures) vary in each individual case and are only known to the operator.

  • Page 9 Safety instructions and measures WARNING Risk of personal injury due to incorrect operation, use or installation as a result of in- formation on the regulator being illegible. Over time, markings, labels and nameplates on the regulator may become covered with dirt or become illegible in some other way. As a result, hazards may go unnoticed and the necessary instructions not followed.
